Barcelona Celebrates its 113th Birthday

Today, one of the most popular football clubs in the world celebrates its 113th birthday. The Spanish team was created on the 29th November 1899, and the person who had the greatest impact on its creation was the Swiss Max Camper, who later became famous as Joan Gamper. Everything began with just a table, four chairs and two notebooks and naming the newly created Football Club Barcelona. Gulateri Vild is chosen as the first president of the club and Joan Gamper became the first ever captain in Barcelona.



 The first even major trophies of the team were in 1909/1910 when the team won the Cupa del Rey. The first ever "El Classico" was played in 1902 and Barcelona defeated Real Madrid with a score of 3:1.
